Title: Generalissimo Brogdon gets death threats
Post by: Ed W on April 19, 2010, 03:29:43 PM
You can't make this stuff up!

"Brogdon says he was sad that some in the anti-militia crowd can be as irrational as those they condemn."

Wait a minute...did he just admit that those people were irrational?  But yet he wants to start a militia?

Oh, I'm so confused!

So Brogdon inadvertently ripped the Tea Party crowd that he says he so adores.

In addition, I saw him try to explain himself on an MSNBC show, and he was evasive in his answers about the state-formed militia and what "constitutional threats" in which it should be used, then twisted himself into knots further by saying that any constitutional challenges should be non-violent.

Not to mention the entire time he looked confused.

If his militia comment was going to cause to much confusion or paranoia, he should have stayed away from it in the first place. It's called message control, senator.

It might be time to call him "Not Ready for Prime Time" Randy.

Death threats need to be taken serious, but coming from a candidate who is getting firmly trounced in fund-raising efforts, I'm viewing it with a cynical eye.  All he can afford is free publicity.

Again folks, would you vote for this:

Like I said in a previous post, that picture of him is downright creepy.

Well, based on yesterday's blog post, Michael Bates has a mancrush on him. So I'd say he would, unless he does a 180 at the last minute and goes for Fallin.

With all due respect, Bates' track record on endorsements turning into winners hasn't been stellar.

He is the tea-bagger's golden boy here in Oklahoma.
So, if that group is embracing him so dearly, it must be due to shared values.

Hatred, racism, bigotry, intolerance, - all the traditional values of John Birch Society, KKK, etc.

Did I mention how proud he is to be a member of JBS?

JBS is the new, improved moniker for the John Birch Society - more politically correct? - in a feeble attempt to mask their origins and background.

Soooo, why is it that I can see Col. Brogdon in a slightly revised version of Fiddler on the Roof, with him singing "Sedition!" at the top of his lungs? There's a great opportunity for parody.

Endorsing eight of the nine victorious city councilors is pretty lame. I'll try to do better next time.

Yeah, get to work on that Michael.  ;)

I wasn't just referring to the last city election, there's been other elections where your picker has been off.
